Amazing service!!! amazing food!!!! Nette is amazing!!!! 10/10 recommend the crab is great drinks are great!! read more

Let me start off by saying, the food was pretty good. Service left a lot to be desired. Wait times were ridiculous and they definitely seem to be one of those places that pick favorites when it comes to the patrons. Po'boy sandwich was great. I was actually sad when it was gone. I like that they give you gloves to handle your food with. Other than the long wait times, sticky surfaces, high prices, and hairy products, it was mostly okay. read more

I got a half-pound boil and let me tell you, it was the perfect little bag for me and super affordable. It was under $15 for headless shrimp, my choice of sauce, and the included add-ins, which I think were one corn and one potato. read more

Thank You, Red Crab! We want to give a big thank you to Red Crab for hosting such a wonderful birthday celebration for our family -- honoring my mom and my two cousins. We decided to have a Hawaiian luau-themed party, and it turned out beautifully! The restaurant was very accommodating. If you're hosting a party for fewer than 25 people, you'll need to put down a deposit of $20-$25. For 25 or more guests, the deposit is $50. The great part? You get a gift card in return that you can use toward food, tips, or anything you like. We originally planned for 30 guests, then bumped it to 35, and we ended up with 40 people. Despite the growing guest list, Red Crab handled it with grace. Our waitress, Simone, was amazing! She took great care of us throughout the entire event. This wasn't our first time at Red Crab -- over the years, it's become the place our family chooses for special occasions. Everyone just loves it here. One thing I really appreciate is that the music isn't overwhelmingly loud like at some other seafood boil spots. It makes for a much more enjoyable atmosphere. We were allowed to bring in a birthday cake, which they kindly stored in the refrigerator for us. While confetti wasn't allowed, we were given the freedom to decorate and use the side seating area for gifts and setup, which was perfect. This location works just as well for a fun group celebration as it does for a romantic dinner or casual night out. They sometimes have karaoke or live music, and every time I've visited, the staff has been consistently kind and welcoming. As for the food -- my mother always enjoys the boil with two lobsters, crab legs, and shrimp. I usually go for the seafood pasta with just shrimp (delicious!). If you're not into seafood, they also offer chicken wings, chicken strips, and other non-seafood options. And yes -- there's a full bar with a great selection of drinks. We'll definitely be back. Thank you again, Red Crab, for helping us make some amazing memories! read more

Good Food Great atmosphere! Nice service! I love the shrimp fried rice and would get that every time I go read more

Came to this restaurant and sat at the bar. Food was good, I enjoyed that. When it was time to pay I tipped in cash over 10% and paid with my card. Days later I get a notification that my card total was adjusted to add another $6.00 to my total for tip. Where do they do that at?!? I guess the bartender felt she wanted more!?! That's fraud, make sure you pay cash if you visit this establishment SMH. read more

Horrible experience today. Service is the absolute worst. Took forever to be greeted then dropped food and drink off together and never came back. like... at all. Not even to bring a bill. Just disappeared. read more

It's ight. It gets the job done. To be honest a lot of boils in VA are not that great.

Was not good food and service sucked better off going to Red Lobster! they are way better don't waste your time our server was horrible and gave me a water with a bug in it !!! The sauce was like water won't be going back read more

Went with friends to celebrate a birthday and it was a great experience. It was one of the best services I've ever experienced. It was my first time trying seafood boil and their sauce just took everything to the next level. The restaurant had a good vibe. I highly recommend it :) read more

Not impressed and won't return. VERY poor service, mediocre food, not very clean and plastic forks??????

My wife and I enjoyed the excellent food that we ordered. Everything tasted good and well seasoned. My wife had the boil bag and she loved it, and I had the catfish basket and the fried fish was fried to perfection, I have never had it cooked to perfection before, that was love. read more

Service from everyone was amazing. Best seafood I have eaten, everything was perfect. Great flavor shrimp cooked perfectly. I would give more than 5 stars if I could. Will for sure go back. read more

nette was my server she was very kind and attentive , food was extremely good juicy and tasteful

The is the first restaurant in which I ate that the server was wearing a firearm. The food was ok. I had a hard time finding something that was not fried and eventually settled for the Shrimp Fried Rice. My rice was salty. There were some sketchy people outside the restaurant. I would not suggest going there alone. read more

Food was very good! Prices were as expected. We came in for a mid afternoon lunch, so the restaurant was very empty, only a few other patrons. Our server was accommodating when we asked her to turn the music down, however she hardly came to check on us and never offered refills on our iced teas. It was impossible to get her attention without walking to the bar, where the employees were milling around. Overall we enjoyed our lunch. read more

I do NOT recommend . Ordered the dungeness crab boil dinner. Had sauce on side to dip instead of pouring on dinner. Glad I did since it was so salty. The crab meat tasted re-steamed, not fresh and smelled unpleasant. The crab meat was rough an textured. Ate everything else except the crabs. Took home and threw in garbage the next day. Will never return. The Crabs are not fresh read more

Boil-in-bag meal with variety of sauce blends. Place is clean and ambiance is nice. Waiter was a delight, with a great sense of humor, attentive without being overbearing. Crab was good, corn overcooked (but to be expected with this type of meal. Loose 1 star for restrooms, which were aged and unclean. read more

The server was attentive during the week. The specials were a good price. They had food was tasty

I go here all the time and usually have a good experience and always spend at least $100 every time. Today I was seated and for about 20 min 4 diff waitstaff walked past my table at least twice each, checking on tables around us, bringing checks to the table. NO ONE SAID A WORD TO US. We knew what we wanted before we walked in. Then when we left everyone's all like "have a good night". CLUELESS. On my way to Twisted Crab. Refuse to spend my money where I'm not acknowledged read more

Affordable steamed Dungeness crab with peel and eat shrimps as well, amazing! The restaurant was clean and we did ask for bibs as we were both dressed to go elsewhere so we didn't want to stain our clothes as we broke down our crab. We shared the crab. It's fine to order any special, not just that specific day's special. We had gone on a Monday but we craved Crab so that's what we got. You choose your spice level and your sauce. We took the popular vote and got the Juice which is a combo. Fabulous place for real whole crabs. read more

Highly recommend! Customer service is top tier, good is always amazing, drinks are good and prices are great!

My friend went to Red Crab in Hampton, VA for a take out order. The prices were much greater than advertised on the internet menu. She brought this to the manager's attention, and he proceeded to be rude and disrespectful to the point where other patrons had to get involved. He then demanded his food back, after it had been given to her, and followed her into the parking lot, yelling and screaming after she had paid. The manager is horrible and the pricing is gouging the public consumers. Avoid at all costs! read more

Initially, I was skeptical about choosing to dine at this location. I'm happy that I chose to dine in. I did not enjoy the fried shrimp basket with fries. However, I enjoyed the shrimp w/o head with corn and potatoes. I chose mild, juicy seasoning. My food was finger-licking good. I will return to this location again. As a bonus, the bathroom was clean. I did not have to wait a long time for my food to be prepared. My waitress was patient, friendly, and mannerable. read more

Am I being punked? Greetings, Yeplers! I'm back! And celebrating a monumental event. At the Hampton, VA - Red Crab A decision was made to enjoy a local establishment. One star goes out to one of the exceptional hostesses. I unfortunately, cannot recall her name. But she was phenomenal! Conversely, to our surprise, an unprovoked verbal wrestling match would ensue. With the "Manager" Angel/Andrew (no one knows the managers last name). Waitress was MIA for most of the evening. Extremely inattentive, which perhaps was the reason for the cold/tepid meal. Wait time - Exceeded an hour Food - Tepid Service - Unscrupulous Ambiance Subtle Management needs customer service training, as well as a few staff members. Rude, derogatory and inappropriate. I've never encountered an establishment where the staff member attempts to fight the consumer; and the manager, doesn't listen to the concerns of the customer. I thought I was on the TV show Restaurant Impossible. Unbelievable! If you consider patronizing with this establishment, I have three words for you. Don't do it! Take care! read more

This was a last minute craving and recommendation I had for this place. I ordered 1lb of crawfish w hot Cajun sauce 1lb of snow crab w medium Cajun sauce And 2 lobster tails in medium Juicy sauce. The crawfish was delicious, the sauce too, I liked the sizes of the potatoes that came with. Very flavourful sauce. The juicy sauce is apparently Cajun, garlic butter and lemon pepper all together and let me tell you it was fire!! Thé lobster tails were not overly chewy, but the sauce is really what got my attention, spicy, tangy, so flavourful!! I will definitely return and have the juicy sauce with everything!! Gréât seafood boil, fast service I ordered for takeout, the food was hot. Was a great portion and price point for two people. read more

We came to Hampton for the Black Beard Pirate Festival. We decided that we needed a seafood dinner and found the Red Crab. We are SO VERY GLAD we did.

Red Crab Juicy Seafood - Cool ceiling fishies! - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Hampton, Virginia

Went to Red Crab for the first time a week ago. Very clean and welcoming atmosphere. It was endearing to see people at their tables with napkins around their necks ready to dive into the piles of shellfish in front of them. Our waitress - I believe her name was Tatiana - was a true delight. She had a busy section but was at the top of her game, seeing to it that her customers were properly cared for. The food was good and you get a lot of it. The food is not cheap depending on what you're hungry for, but it seems worth the price just for being there. I do wish there were mixed vegetables in the fried rice and not nearly as much butter, but it was good regardless. Only complaint is that the stereo at the bar was turned up exceptionally high after 10 mins which overpowered another radio that was already playing so what started as a calm and quiet dinner ended up being a battle of the bands. High marks for Tatiana, if the name's right and the overall atmosphere. read more

Always good food and service!! I've never had a problem with my order. The food is tasty and they give you plenty. I like how they allow you to order any of the daily specials regardless of the day. The strawberry Hennessy is a great combination - you should try it. read more
